Kyle Pedley profile »
I’m a Midlands-based film/media producer currently based in Stourbridge. Whilst I enjoy experiencing and writing about all areas of the media (videogames, television etc) my real passion lies in the cinema, and it is there that my future ambitions and aspirations lie. I gained a First Class Honours degree in Film Production in 2009 and have been incredibly lucky enough to work with and meet some brilliant people in the industry - from interviewing the likes of Twilight star Robert Pattinson and BAFTA-winning filmmaker Mike Leigh, through to meeting some of the Hollywood elite including Johnny Deep, Zac Efron, Sir Ian Mckellen, Orlando Bloom and more.
The intention with this blog is to provide movie reviews and general musings on the world of film as a whole, with hopefully some exclusive content popping up over the coming months. I hope you enjoy reading, and any and all comments and feedback will be very gratefully received.
